After Hattori Heiji and Mouri Kogoro had enough fighting with each other, Taketomi Masao saw that there were no other clues here, so he took the detective team back to the ship to wait.
"By the way," Hattori Heiji saw oranges on the boat and took one and threw it to Chi Feichi, "Brother Feichi, this is for you!"
Chi Feichi caught the orange and felt baffled.
"Even if Fei Chi is in the same group as you now, you don't have to stick to him like this, right?" Mouri Kogoro was speechless.
"Uncle, you already know," Hattori Heiji was a little surprised, and then explained, "No, no, it's because one night I suddenly received an email from Fei Chi, asking me if I wanted to eat oranges, and then he replied that he I sent it wrong, so I was wondering if he wanted to eat oranges in the middle of the night and asked someone to buy them, or asked someone to bring some to him."
"Huh?" Conan was a little surprised, "Have you also received this kind of email? Brother Chi also sent it to me..."
"I told you, I sent it to the wrong person." Chi Feichi peeled off the orange and handed half of it to Haiyuan Ai who was distracted.
Hui Yuan Ai took the orange, walked to the side and sat down, thinking about the meaning of the phrase 'losing Jingzhou if you are careless'.
In China, many children know the meaning of this sentence, but it has not spread in Japan.
Haibara Ai didn't think about "Three Kingdoms" for a moment, and was distracted eating oranges.
How to break a sentence? Carelessness, Jingzhou? Da...well, carelessness, loss, Jingzhou, it is more reasonable to say this, but what does Jingzhou mean?
It was approaching dusk, and while a group of people were waiting, others returned to the boat one after another.
"Please, uncle," Hattori Heiji was still arguing with Mori Kogoro, "just because this is the beach, you can't just want to go to Ryugu, right?"
Mouri Kogoro lit a cigarette with a look on his face, "What do you know, kid..."
"Didn't Teacher Maori think of the Dragon Palace because of the sea?" Chi Fei belatedly saw Haiyuan eating an orange with a sad head. He handed the other half of his hand over and expressed his guess? "I saw it at the mayor's house? Right? ?”
Mouri Kogoro was stunned, nodded and said, "Yes, when we passed by the mayor's house? The director, Mr. Taketomi, said that the mayor invited us to be guests in the evening? So I looked up and found that the attic of their house was standing outside. A sign said "Dragon Palace" on it, and I thought their family was strange at the time? But considering the circumstances of this corpse, isn't it the Princess of the Dragon Palace?"
On the side, Dadong Mikihiko suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
This famous detective can do it. He is so sharp. Will it affect his plan?
Hattori Heiji also frowned. Since it wasn't just a random association and it was not approved by Brother Chi, then maybe there really is some connection. "But? That corpse doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the mayor's family, right?"
Hui Yuan Ai, who was distracted at the side, went through many eliminations and finally thought of Guan Yu who guarded Jingzhou in "Three Kingdoms". He was too proud and did not take Sun Quan seriously. As a result, when he sent troops to attack Cao Cao, Sun Quan took advantage of it and captured Jingzhou.
In other words, Fei Chi is saying that he was entirely on guard against Edogawa and did not take the uncle to heart, but the uncle found out the key point?
Thinking about it, Hui Yuan Ai approached Chi Feichi and asked in a low voice, "Uncle is right, is it really related to the 'Dragon Palace'?"
"Well," Chi Feichi replied in a low voice, "but there is still something crucial missing..."
One key thing is missing, and the plot needs to continue to develop.
"Brother Fei Chi," Hattori Heiji also came over, "Let's wait a little longer to coax the little girl. Don't you have any idea about that strange sentence?"
Chi Feichi thought for a moment and stood up, "I'll go diving nearby to take a look."
"Huh?" Mao Lilan turned around in confusion, "Brother Chi, it's almost dark, do you still want to go diving?"
Chi Feichi took a small flashlight from his pocket, "I have a waterproof flashlight."
"Because Ms. Taira seemed to be looking for something in the nearby sea," Hattori Heiji explained, "and the body was rolled ashore by the waves. Maybe something fell into the sea, and Ms. Taira happened to know it."
Dadong Mikihiko: "..."
This group of people is very dangerous. Not only are the two detectives dueling each other, but the others are also not easy to mess with. They won't affect his plan, right?
"But Brother Chi, here..." Hattori Heiji was startled, "No, where is Miss Heira? Is she still diving?!"
Conan looked up at Hattori Heiji, his face suddenly turned ugly.
The next second, Hattori Heiji and Conan ran outside.
Chi Feichi also followed and ran out with the others.
Toyama and Ye saw Hattori Heiji and Conan separated in front, running to both sides, and asked, "Fei, Fei, brother, what's wrong with them?"
Chi Feichi ran easily. Seeing Mao Lilan and Haihara Ai looking at him, he explained, "Mr. Dadong said that a lot of horse mackerel can be caught near this island. Horse mackerel is a migratory fish." , generally live in sea areas with fast sea water flow. With my physical strength, diving is no problem. However, if Ms. Taira has been diving for a long time during the day and goes into the water at this time, her physical strength will easily be unable to keep up and she will be washed away by the sea water. Go, you are in danger.”
"Ah? Then Hattori and Conan..." Mao Lilan looked forward and was stunned.
On the beach in front, Ie Taira was lying on the beach, with his hands in front of him, like a princess who had been sleeping forever.
Hattori Heiji and Conan stopped on both sides, looking at the words written on the beach beside Ie Sahara.
[I am the messenger of Gusuo! 】
"Hey, brat, don't touch the scene!" Mouri Kogoro's face suddenly became serious and he ran over there.
With Mouri Kogoro present, the protection site can be considered to have professional guidance.
Mouri Kogoro borrowed a camera from Toyama Kazuha, and just as he was about to speak, he saw a hand pressing the cloth ruler next to the words on the beach.
Chi Fei saw Mouri Kogoro looking over and asked, "Why don't you take a photo of these words? If they are washed away by the waves, they will be gone."
"Ahem, yes, yes." Mouri Kogoro said no more nonsense. Ike Feichi and Hattori Heiji took the cloth ruler and wordlessly took pictures of the text, then planned to take pictures of the body again.
His apprentice really takes everything with him when he goes out.
If he needed the evidence bag later, he believed that his apprentice would be able to get it.
Oh, yes, and...
Conan: "Brother Chi..."
Hattori Heiji: "It's not Brother Chi..."
Mouri Kogoro: "Gloves!"
Chi Feichi: "..."
These three people keep asking him for gloves. Don’t you know how to bring them yourself?
Haibara Ai:"……"
So neat...
other people:"……"
what's the situation?
Mouri Kogoro straightened up and threw the camera to Hattori Heiji, "Go! Take a photo of the distance between the body and the wet sand. There are obvious signs of high tide here. The sand for a distance above Miss Heira's head is still wet, and it is covered by the water on the beach. The fact that the words have not disappeared shows that the murderer only wrote them after the tide went out.”
Hattori Heiji speechlessly took over the camera and took over the task of taking pictures. He had to admit that his uncle was right.
When Conan saw this situation, he also knew that he could not win over Mouri Kogoro, so he made a cute analysis, "But this is right at the back of the pier. We were all on the boat waiting for Miss Taira to go back an hour ago. There is no way we can do it before the water ebbs." Leave a message, are there others on this island?"
"It's very possible." Seeing Chi Feichi handing him the gloves, Maori Kogoro took them and said sternly to the others who were following him while putting them on, "Everyone has heard it, except for us. I’m afraid there are still dangerous guys here, we are all gathered here now, don’t act alone or leave!”
When Mouri Kogoro looks serious, he still looks very reliable.
Taketomi Masao nodded quickly, "Okay, okay!"
"Huh?" Conan noticed something being thrown at him and subconsciously picked it up. He lowered his head and saw that it was a glove. He looked at Chi Feichi in confusion.
Doesn't Chi Feichi use gloves?
"I'll leave this to you." Chi Feichi took off his coat and shirt and handed them to Haiyuan Ai. He took out the flashlight from his coat pocket without taking off the shirt underneath. "I'll dive into the nearby sea to have a look."
He works hard to promote the development of the plot.
"Hey, Brother Feichi..." Hattori Heiji frowned. Although Ie Taira is dead now, they have to figure out what Ie Taira was looking for in the sea before. With Ike Feichi's physical strength and skill, it should be no problem to dive for a while, and With Chi Feichi's observation skills, it is also the most suitable to dive down, but there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents. "The sea water here flows very fast, we should wait for the police to arrive..."
"Long-winded."
While Hattori Heiji and others were hesitating, Chi Feichi had already walked into the sea with a flashlight and dived without saying a word.
Hattori Heiji:"……"
Isn't he worried? He actually thinks he's verbose...
The water flow near Funura Island is really fast, and there are undercurrents sweeping across it from time to time. Even if you have good physical strength, you are likely to be swept far away.
Chi Feichi held his breath and dived into the sea, leaving his scent in the sea so that Feili could lock it. He looked at it with a flashlight for a while and found the anchor sunk on the seabed. After swimming in, he reached out and touched the rust on it. trace.
People on the shore waited nervously and found that when Chi Feichi surfaced, he had been swept close to the pier by the sea water.
Then……
They also found that the boat they were traveling on was missing, and the captain was nowhere to be seen.
A group of people could only go to the old and dilapidated house first, and then find a way to contact the outside world and send a rescue ship to pick them up.
Chi Feichi originally wanted to find a room, take off his wet pants and squeeze out some water.
However, Mouri Kogoro suspected that there were other people on the island and felt that it was too dangerous to act alone, so he asked him to clean up in the room next to the living room and prevent him from running to other rooms.
When Chi Fei Chi returned to the living room, a group of people lit candles and gathered around the table. They had already finished their discussion - when the mayor finds out that they have not returned and cannot contact them tomorrow, he should be able to find a boat to rescue them.
"Brother, you are really courageous," Dadong Mikihiko stood at the door. When he saw Chi Fei come out late, he said, "How dare you dive into such a fast-moving tide when the sky is so dark? In the sea, even experienced divers will lose their lives if they are not careful."
"You should wait for the police to come." Haiyuan Ai handed Chi Feichi's clothes forward, a little speechless.
Was this infected by the detective?
Chi Feichi took the shirt from Haiyuan Ai, put it on, lowered his head and buttoned the buttons, "This time is an exception."
Who gave him the expectation to win?
"So what's the result?" Hattori Heiji asked quickly, "Is there anything special in the sea where Miss Taira was diving?"
"The anchor," Chi Feichi said as he lowered his head to buckle the chain, "the place where the chain broke was cut artificially. It was covered with rust, and there were algae and shellfish growing on it. It had been sunk in the sea for at least four or five years. "
Hattori Heiji nodded. Let Chi Feichi dive to see it. This is the advantage. He can notice important details and make some judgments.
